How to choose the kitchen countertop! Quartz, rock slab, stainless steel or marble? Which one should I choose among so many materials?<\/p>\r\n\r\n

First of all, when it comes to marble countertops, although the natural texture of marble is unmatched by other stones, and the texture is very hard, and the wear resistance and scratch resistance are also good, I still have to give it a "bad review"! Because its toughness is really poor, it may crack with a "snap" sound with a little heavy blow or heavy pressure. Moreover, marble is a porous structure, and the luster will be gone after a long time of use, and it is easy to hide dirt. So marble and granite, I advise you to take a detour!

\r\nLet's talk about stainless steel countertops. Although not many people use it now, it is indeed a good choice. It is fire-resistant, high-temperature resistant, and strong and moisture-proof. Stainless steel countertops are also divided into two types, solid stainless steel and filled stainless steel. Solid stainless steel has a good texture, but the price is too high. Of course, the local tyrants are willful. Although filled stainless steel is more cost-effective, its physical properties are worse than solid stainless steel.

\r\nNext is the rock slab countertop, which is very beautiful, with super hardness and density, and does not leak oil or color. However, it is like a "porcelain doll" and is easy to bump into the corners. So, if you like its appearance, you must take good care of it!

\r\nFinally, I would like to recommend quartz countertops! This kind of artificial stone is simply the "all-round king" of the kitchen! It is resistant to high temperature, wear, and slip, and has many patterns, which makes people love it. Moreover, as long as you choose the right quartz stone with a density of more than 90%, you don't have to worry about color bleeding. Its hardness is as high as Mohs 7. You must know that diamond is only level 10, so chopping ribs and cutting vegetables are no problem. It is definitely the most cost-effective choice!

\r\nOf course, there may be some traces of quartz stone when it is spliced, but this small flaw does not affect its overall performance at all. So, if you are worried about the kitchen countertop, you might as well consider quartz stone! Next time, I will tell you how to distinguish real and fake quartz stone!
